The Ladies Of The Avengers...

A tribute to one of the most stylish, elegant and all-around AWESOME shows ever made. All 3 leading ladies of The Avengers also released pop singles!

My favourites, perhaps, being Linda Thorson's.  The sassy, take charge strut of "Here I Am":

Or the lovelorn Southern gospel blues of  "Bad Time To Stop Loving Me".  A handful of other songs were recorded for Ember Records and can be found on A Snapshot Of Swinging London along with Twiggy's pop singles.

Diana Rigg (and oh how Emma Peel has influenced my own pop efforts) recorded 2 songs in 1970,  "Sentimental Journey" ,  featured in Tom Stoppard's "Jumpers" play, and "Forget Yesterday" .  These are the 7" versions but there are alternate versions for each as well (on Spotify).   Shame there's no YouTube clips for these so here's her singing "You're The Top" in the film Evil Under The Sun:





And who could forget Honor Blackman & Patrick Macnee's "Kinky Boots":





And the even better b-side "Let's Keep It Friendly".  "MEOW"!!!
